2016 Mercedes-Benz Amg G65 Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2016 Mercedes-Benz AMG G65 has 3 recalls, the most serious being two separate crash risks: a cruise control fault that can prevent the engine from reducing power and a steering coupling that can wear loose and cause a complete loss of steering.

When the adaptive cruise control system malfunctions alongside the stability program, the engine may hold its power output even when the driver brakes or shifts to neutral, requiring much greater stopping distance. On the steering side, the coupling connecting the steering column to the steering gear may not have been tightened sufficiently, and as it wears, steering control can be lost entirely. The third recall involves the emergency call system, where a software fault can cause the system to report an incorrect time and location during an emergency call, potentially slowing the response of emergency services.
